The Rotherham Hospice is a registered charity and is the only adult hospice for the people of Rotherham and surrounding villages We began offering day care services in 1994 and over the years have grown not only in size and premises but also in the range of care and services available for local people

The care and help we provide is given free of charge and we rely on voluntary donations and some statutory funding to meet our running and development costs Our ability to meet the needs of the community we serve is very dependent on the support of local people groups businesses and organisations
